Extract of an article published in the SelfBuild & Design Magazine Feb 2007.

“When we first cleared the site, we came across the iron rims and axles from an ancient cart, and we’d had the idea of turning them into a sculpture for the courtyard. The man with apparently the right credentials is in a nearby village. “Is that Mick Keepence?” “I’m afraid so" comes the response with a twinkle in his voice.
Mick is a tonic. "Ahh, tyres,’ he says patting the giant rusty iron rims. He tells me how the old wheelwrights used to forge-weld them, then get them red hot so they’d clamp onto a wooden spoke-frame as they cooled.
First, Mick shot blasts our iron to clean it up. Then he tacks the rims and axles together, and patiently he
breaks them apart again when i want to do something different. His son helps him heave the result down from the work-bench, and his wife and daughter – half a dozen beagle puppies at their heels – join in the debate on what colour the sculpture should be powder coated. Must be the self builder’s heaven, this!

Just a note to say thank you for doing such a great job on our table and chairs. We love they way it looks now. Well worth doing! - Alison 2018
